FreeSO is a fan-made, open-source recreation of The Sims Online (an MMO from the early 2000s). Being a niche project mainly for nostalgia or Sims fans, and with minimal marketing or support since 2017, the community is small and activity is usually limited to a few hundred dedicated players daily. Its MMO status is justified by persistent worlds and large shared spaces, but its audience is limited by age and unofficial nature.
Estimated Daily Players
~25 thousand
We estimate that VRChat has currently around 25k players daily.
VRChat, released in 2017, is a social platform supporting large-scale, persistent worlds and user-created content. Though its peak popularity was in the late 2010s, it retains a dedicated community, especially in VR circles. Player counts have stabilized in the tens of thousands daily due to steady user-generated content and ongoing VR relevance.
